Sehe ich den Menschen, oder nur seine Rolle? "Seitdem ich angefangen habe, meinen Chef als Menschen zu sehen, hat sich ganz viel verändert!" – so äußerte sich kürzlich eine Coachee von Aleko Vangelis. Für ihn und Peter Statz Grund genug, sich im aktuellen "Espresso für die Führungskraft" mit der wertvollen Botschaft zu beschäftigen, die in diesen Worten liegt. Bei HEAD AND HEART geht es darum, den Menschen zu sehen und nicht nur dessen Rolle. Ohne jeden Zweifel existiert auch heute noch ein Spannungsfeld zwischen unserem reellen Leben und unserer Funktion. Dieses können wir überprüfen, indem wir uns die Frage stellen, wo wir Mensch sind und wo wir in unserer Aufgabe sind. Vielen Menschen scheint der Gedanke zu widerstreben, dass man beides gleichzeitig sein darf: Mensch UND Chef, Mensch UND Politiker, Mensch UND Funktionär, etc. Daher dürfen wir neu lernen, dass eine Co-Existenz beider Realitäten möglich ist. Sonst müssten wir selbst immer eine Maske tragen, einen Teil von uns unterdrücken – und das ist anstrengend. Wenn ich meine Haltung verändere, verändere ich damit auch meine Sicht auf meinen Chef oder auf meine Mitarbeiter. Es gelingt mir, sie ganzheitlich zu sehen. Übrigens geht es bei alldem nicht nur um die emotionale Ebene. Es geht ganz klar auch um Produktivität. Ein Team funktioniert nur, wenn man sich menschlich versteht und damit unmöglich macht, dass man die ganze Zeit übereinander schimpft. Ist das Fundament einer professionellen Beziehung auf einer soliden menschlichen Basis nicht gegeben, erhöht sich automatisch die Fluktuation in der Belegschaft. Ist diese Grundlage jedoch vorhanden, macht das den Arbeitsalltag automatisch angenehmer, produktiver und erfolgreicher. Außerdem kann man im Rahmen einer guten Verbindung miteinander diskutieren und im Sinne der Sache auch mal streiten, um zu einem guten Ergebnis zu kommen. Wie siehst Du Deinen Mitarbeiter oder Deinen Chef? Wie würdest Du euer Vertrauensverhältnis einschätzen? Moderation: Peter Statz (https://peterstatz.de) & Aleko Vangelis Falls Du Fragen oder Anregungen hast, tritt mit uns in Kontakt über shipLEADER@hah-consultants.com oder LinkedIn. Wir stehen Dir und euch zur Seite – auch mit Assessments, Talentmanagement oder Trainings. https://www.hah-consultants.com https://www.linkedin.com/company/headnheart/
